Original up2date (stock 7 installation, not the respin). I selected all the available packages, including glibc 2.1.94-3. Just after I installed the glibc package, but before any other packages were installed, the up2date program crashed with this error in the terminal window I started it from: Traceback (innermost last): File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/gui.py", line 475, in doInstallation up2date.installPackages(self.selectedPkgList, self.rpmCallback) File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/up2date.py", line 1037, in installPackages rc = ts.run(0, 0, rpmCallback, cfg.readEntry("storageDir")) File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/gui.py", line 458, in rpmCallback up2date.remoteDelPackage((name, version, release, epoch)) File "/usr/share/rhn/up2date/up2date.py", line 632, in remoteDelPackage raise CommunicationError(f.faultString) up2date.CommunicationError: Error communicating with server. The message was: Invalid server certificate Note that this was *after* glibc installed, and before anything else. I marked this low-priority since glibc is excluded by default from the normal up2date update sequence. However, on another system I updated only glibc (worked), then ran through the client again for the rest of the packages (worked). It is also low priority because I've been unable to reproduce this on a test system -- I just wanted to get it in the database for future reference. Matt
I'm having the same problem with up2date, although it wasn't in the middle of installing anything. All of the sudden a few days ago it stopped working with the "Invalid Server Certificiate" error. Going to the server it goes to in Opera results in the same error, there is some kind of a problem with the server's SSL Certificiate. With that in mind, its not really a RH7, but a Redhat.com server problem. It would be really nice to have a fix though, as it makes up2date completely useless.
this was a transient server issue that has been corrected. Please re-open if the problem persists.
